A local office, with several decades of history in Southern California, closes, as reported by the Thousand Oaks Acorn.
An excerpt.
“Catholic Charities no longer provides food, shelter, clothing and eviction-prevention assistance to the needy from a rent-free office at Under One Roof in Thousand Oaks.
“By forgoing office space and the salary of a full-time employee as of Aug. 6, Catholic Charities will save $40,000 a year on internal costs charged to them by their Los Angeles branch, said Michael Perry, regional director of Catholic Charities.
“That’s money we can better spend providing services to those who need it,” Perry said.
“The charity had been at the office at 80 E. Hillcrest Drive for 15 years, in Thousand Oaks for more than 30 years and in Ventura County since 1926.”
